so no one's had problem with the firmware updates (causing bricked PS3's etc?) ?

reason im askin is cause i was checking out the boardsus.playstation.com forums and there were some complaints there ah, and since mine bricked during the 2.40 update or smth, im not gonna risk another one without checkin first. heh

yea, ive read abit on the US playstation forums and seen a bunch of complaints bout the 2.70 update. thats why ive resist temptation of downloading it. Im waiting for Sony to release a statement tho, last time an update bricked PS3s, they took it off soon after it was put up, but now its been close to 2 weeks or so since the 2.70 one.
